1.3.1.1 Standard Mapping
When configured in Standard mapping mode (default), there is a direct relationship
between Input Data ports and Output cards which can be seen in Table 1.3.
Table 1.3 Input/Output mapping for ’Standard’ mode.
Data Port Output Card Slot Transport Streams
P1/S1 1, 2 1-24
P2/S2 3, 4 25-48
P3/S3 5, 6 49-72
P4/S4 7, 8 73-96
The Transport Streams are mapped logically as defined in Table 1.4. Channel
designations defined in the tables are as seen from the rear of the unit.
Table 1.4 Channel Allocations for ’Standard’ mode (example Slot 1).

1.3.1.2 Distributed Mapping
Distributed mapping mode can be configured when installed within an RF redundant
network. This is often referred to as ‘QAM Striping’.
The Data port (1-4) is directly mapped to the channel (1-4) on each spigot. Each
data port covers all 8 Output cards therefore and the Transport Stream increments
across RF connectors/spigots (1-24).
